[Otto Puzzell]

For this week's installment, we're featuring a Le Mans theme. Some historic races and drivers, and a best-forgotten car, car-toons and refreshments.

Let's go 'round Le Mans with the legendary Mike Hawthorn in a 1956 Jaguar

From the sublime, to the ridiculous (but we have to pay the bills), here's an advertisement for Pontiac's craptastic, Korean built version of the Opel Kadett, the 1988 "Le Mans"

Love the mopeds coming the other way.
Did they remove those for race-day or allow them to carry on to spice things up a bit?!
